not pay attention to any illegible or inappropriate words.
================================
Part 1: Who is Super Android 17?
================================
Super Android 17 is the fusion of two seperate androids. The first android is
the original android 17 was not destroyed by Cell and remained on Earth. The
second android is another android 17, also known as HFIL fighter #17, created
by Dr. Gero and Dr. Myuu in the Otherworld. The latter is sent to find the
original #17. When the two meet they spar with each other and eventually fuse
together, creating Super 17. This new android has incredible energy absorbing
abilities which are strong enough to absorb Super Saiyan 4 Goku's 10x
Kamehameha. However, as we all know how DBZ/GT goes, Goku finds a way to win.
***For those of you that have seen GT series, feel free to let me know the
actual series of events, as I am going on what Japanese episodes I saw a couple
of years ago, so yeah...
=====================
Part 2: Game Controls
=====================
In Dragonball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 2, the main controller I use is the Wii
Remote and Nunchuk Combination. For those of you that prefer the Classic
Controller or Gamecube controller, there is a section in the FAQs/Guides
section for this game. I am only going to list the controls for the Wii Remote
and Nunchuk set up.
=======================
Part 2A: Basic Controls
=======================
__________
Wii Remote
A - Initiates a rush attack (punch/kick combo). When held down, the punch/kick
can be charged to cause a Smash hit that will send the opponent flying or break
their guard. These Smash hits can be combined with a direction on the Nunchuk's
joystick (Up, Down, Left, or Right) to cause the opponent to fly in that
direction if the Smash hit is successful.
***Note: Using the Wii Remote controls, a Smash hit can be instantly charged
to full power by waving the Remote while charging the Smash hit. This is not
possible when using the Classic/Gamecube controllers.
B - Fires Ki Blasts. When locked on to your opponent, these blasts will
somewhat follow your opponents. The Blast can be charged to release a more
powerful blast. Non-charged blasts can usually be fired 3 or more times in
succession. Uses a small amount of Ki per blast.
D-Pad - Used for a few things. The most used function of the D-Pad is
guarding, which is done by holding Down (\/) on the D-Pad. Hold it down to
reduce damage from your opponent's attacks. Guarding can be used in tandem
with the joystick on the Nunchuk to counter a direction-specific Smash hit.
While holding the Guard button down, you can also perform a Power Guard by
pressing and holding the B button along with the guard button. This will allow
you to reduce damage from opponent's Blast 2s and Ultimate Blasts, and will
stop any Rush Blast 2s (where your opponent flies at you), though your guard
will be broken. Also performs 1 of your character's Blast 1s when combined
with the Z button. Pressing Up (/\) on the D-Pad will initiate Z-Search,
enabling you to lock on to your opponent (you will also lock on to your
opponent if you come close enough to them). Guarding can also be performed by
moving the cursor out of the top of the screen. Another important thing that
the guard button is used for is teleporting. There are two ways to teleport -
offensively and defensively. To teleport defensively from and opponent's
Smash hit, Blast 2, or Ultimate Blast, you must tap guard the split second
before your character is hit. The timing takes time to fully understand, but
it is vital to know how and when to teleport. You can also teleport in
different directions by pressing the direction you want to teleport on the
joystick. To teleport offensively, you must start a rush combo. At any point
during this combo, press guard and a direction and your character will
teleport in that direction, allowing you to continue the rush combo.
*Note that while teleporting defensively costs no Ki, teleporting offensively
costs 1 Ki Bar.
- button - When in battle, the - button switches between your Dragon Radar
(which allows you to see any hidden Dragonballs, as well as your opponent's
location) and your Sensor Indicator,which lets you know when you are
performing a Blast 2. The squares will turn yellow as you perform correct
steps in activating a Blast 2.
+ button - This opens up the pause menu, allowing you to quit the match or
look at your skills.
1 button - When you press the 1 button, your character will transform, given
that they have a form to transform into. Depending on your character, you may
be able to skip levels of transformation. For example, Super Saiyan Goku can
skip Super Saiyan 2 and go right to Super Saiyan 3. This is done by pressing
a direction on the Nunchuk's joystick at the same time you press 1. Again, I
will use Goku as an example. From his base state, Goku can go to Super Saiyan
by pressing <- + 1, Super Saiyan 2 by pressing /\ + 1, and Super Saiyan 3 by
pressing -> + 1. Only a few characters can skip transformations. Some
characters can also power down to their base form, which is done by pressing
\/ + 1. Transformations cost 1 Blast Stock for most characters, though
transformations like Vegeta (Scouter) into a Great Ape cost 3. Also, some
characters can not power down once they have transformed. The 1 button is also
used to fuse, given that you have two "fuseable" characters on your team (like
Kid Trunks and Goten, or Vegeta (Second Form) and Goku). Fusions are done by
pressing Z on the Nunchuk + <- on the joystick + 1.
2 button - The 2 button only has one use. It is used during Tag/Team battle to
switch out your other character.
_______
Nunchuk
Z button - The Z button is very important in this game. When you hold Z down,
your character will begin to gather Ki, which is needed to perform Blast 2s
and normal Ki Blasts. If you hold the Z button and wave the Nunchuk while you
are locked on to your opponent, you will perform a "Dragon Dash" towards your
opponent. The Dragon Dash allows you to move at high speeds towards your
opponent while locked on, or just move really fast when not locked on. This
is useful in avoiding Blast 2s.
C button - The C button is used to jump into the air and then ascend or
descend. Press the C button once to jump. If you press it again in mid-jump,
your character will stay in the air. If you tilt the Nunchuk while holding Z,
you can make you character go higher into the air or go back onto the ground.
It can be tricky to get a hold of at first, so here's a tip from me to you.
If you want to descend, tilt the Nunchuk so that the C Button is facing away
from you in a straight line. If you want to ascend, tilt the Nunchuk so that
the C button is pointing towards the ceiling.
Joystick - The joystick is how you move in this game. When you aren't locked
on to your opponent, your character will move in the direction you are
pressing. While locked on to your opponent, if you press Up (/\), you will
move towards your opponent, Down (\/) will move you away, and Left (<-) or
Right (->) will move you around your opponent. The joystick is also used in
transformations, direction-specific Smash hits, and while dashing.
Nunchuk - The Nunchuk part as a whole is vital to this game. When you wave the
Nunchuk, your character will dash at a faster pace than just moving with the
joystick, but not as fast as a Dragon Dash. When locked on to your opponent in
close combat, your character will quickly step in, allowing you to attack with
a combo. When locked on but not in close combat, waving the Nunchuk will allow
you to dash towards your opponent. While dashing towards them, you can press <-
or -> on the joystick to make your character move to the left or right as they
fly towards your opponent. Also, if you hold /\ on the joystick and wave the
Nunchuk, your character will perform a throw on the opponent. While throws are
unblockable, they can be easily countered by pressing guard at the moment one
character grabs the other.
===============================================
Part 2B: Performing Blast 1s/2s/Ultimate Blasts
===============================================
________
Blast 1s
Performing Blast 1s is an easy task. When I first started playing this game, I
would accidentally do these and not know what their purpose was. Some Blast 1s
power your character up, some allow them to avoid an opponent's attack, some
will protect you from your opponent's Ki blasts, and others will cause your
opponent to be stunned. There are many different Blast 1s, and each character
has two different Blast 1s. The controls are the same for every character. To
perform one of a character's Blast 1s, press the Z button + guard button at the
same time. To perform the character's other Blast 1, press the Z button + Guard
+ Up on the joystick.
________
Blast 2s
This is what makes this game a lot of fun, especially for DB/Z/GT fans. There
are 6 different ways to perform a Blast 2. I will explain them all
individually, as they are a little difficult to understand just by reading.
Each character has 2 Blast 2s and one Ultimate Blast. Most characters use 3
different techniques to perform their Blasts, though some Ultimate Blasts are
done the same as one of the character's Blast 2s. All Blast 2s are done by
pressing and holding the Z + B buttons and performing a motion with the
Remote/Nunchuk. A good way to practice these moves is to go into practice mode
and watch the Sensor Indicator as you perform the moves so you can get a feel
for what motions are needed to activate the move.
#1: The "Kamehameha" Techinique
***Note. For this technique, make sure your cursor remains on the screen at all
times. This technique gave me trouble because I kept accidentally moving the
cursor off the screen.
The name I gave to this technique refers to the motion that you must
perform to activate the more. While holding the Z + B buttons, pull the Remote
back and then thrust it forward, as if you were doing an actual Kamehameha.
Make sure you keep your cursor on screen through the entirety of the movement
or the move won't work.
#2-5 The Cursor Out- Cursor In Technique
I know I said that there were 6 different ways to perform a Blast 2, but
I felt that I could condense these 4 into 1 paragraph, as they are all very
similar. While holding the Z + B buttons, move the cursor out of the screen to
the left, right, top, or bottom, then move it back in. These are the easiest
techniques to perform. You don't have to do it really fast or move the cursor
way out of the screen - just move the cursor until it is no longer on screen,
then move it back in. Remember that each side of the screen is another way to
perform a Blast 2.
#6 The "Rush" Technique
The Rush Technique is named so because it is mainly used to perform Rush
Blast 2s, where one character flies towards the opponent and the attack only
works if the character connects with it. To perform this type of attack, begin
by holding the Z + B buttons. While holding them, wave the Nunchuk twice, then
thrust the Remote forward, like the last part of the "Kamehameha" technique.
Remember to check a character's skill list during a battle, as each character
performs their moves differently.
=============================
Part 3: Super 17's Rush Moves
=============================
*Note: One of Super 17's greatest attributes is that he can absorb Ki blasts.
To do this, simply press guard (Down on the D-Pad) right before a Ki blast
hits you. You can hold guard to stay in the energy-absorbing stance for as
long as you want, but you are vulnerable to rush attacks. This will not only
prevent damage, but it will give you Ki as well. You can absorb all energy
attacks including Blast 2s, like Super Explosive Wave and Kamehameha, and Blast
1s, such as Explosive Wave and Mystic Breath. Not currently sure if moves like
Galactic Donuts or Super Ghost Kamikaze Attack can be absorbed though.

=======================================
Part 4: My Opinions on Super Android 17
=======================================
This guy is one of my favorite and, in my opinion, one of the best characters
in the game. Lots of strength and speed means he is nasty in close combat.
Super 17 at range is deadly too. Since he is an android, he cannot charge his
energy, but recovers it at a steady pace, so make sure to give him a Ki+19
when you are customizing him. His regular Ki blasts are strong and his charged
Ki blast can give you an opening to pummel your opponent. Don't forget about
energy absorbing abilities. Anytime someone shoots a Blast 1 or 2, absorb it.
Speaking of Blast 2s, Super 17's are excellent. Full Power Energy Wave is your
standard damage-dealing Blast 2. Hell's Storm is just... excellent. In order to
avoid any damage, your opponent will have to dodge 30 individual shots. This is
tough to do at close range, which is the best time to use this move. Don't use
this move from too far off, as the recovery time from it will give your
opponent enough time to retaliate. Shocking Death Ball is very good too. Lots
of damage and cool looking too. Oh yeah, and Android's Barrier will protect you
from any Blast or Ultimate Blast. ^_^
=====================================
Recommended Potara Setup for Super 17
=====================================
Gero's Lab Data
Kiss of #18 x4
Title [Tenkaichi]
Eternal Energy Device
This setup allows for maximum stat boosting and increased energy regeneration.
It makes Super 17 one of the most powerful characters in the game, so you can
pawn anyone even more easily. ^_^
